For now, you can comment-put line 167.

Code:

#phoenixMiner=`locate phoenix.py | grep -vi svn`

Then after install, you will have to:
1) In the controll screen, go to configure miners->Add and add an instance of phoenix. Make sure your path is good, and use a launch string like:

Code:

python <#path#>phoenix.py -v -u http://<#user#>:<#pass#>@<#server#>:<#port#>/ -k phatk device=<#device#> worksize=128 vectors aggression=11 bfi_int fastloop=false

2) In the control screen, go to Edit Settings, and change the 'Phoenix installation location' to the path of your phoenix location. I,e,

Code:

/home/your_user/phoenix/

That should get you up and running until I make some changes to the installer.

Just give it a try, its actually not too hard!

Everyone else:

Just thought I would make you all jealous by telling you that the new Failover system is soooo fun! I've been testing it by manually setting a new flag in the database, and its working great!
To finish it off, I need to:
A) Make a new function which sets the flag when a profile fails/returns to normal
B) Make a new control screen option which allows you to set failover order of profiles. (it will order by 1) Priority and then 2) order in which the profile was created.

You want to install the "locate" package. Worked for me in Linuxcoin.

i will have to do alot of reading before i understand how to use this application , for now i have to do as i always have. it looks like a very nice application however understanding how to set up a miner is beyond me .

ollowing problem !

while installing it..

autodetecting local installed miners ..

./smartcoin_install.sh:line 167: locate: command not found

which miner listed above do u want to be the default miner?

What distro are you running? I've personally never seen one that didn't include the locate command...
You should try installing 'findutils' and re-running the installer.
debian/ubuntu:

Code:

sudo apt-get install findutils

fedora:

Code:

sudo yum findutils

What I may end up doing in an upcoming update, is asking first thing if you want to use autodetection. If you choose not to use it, then a minimal install is done instead and then you can set things up manually on the control screen.

i don't think so...
100% fan will kick in 150 °C ?
by then is your PC toast........

Huh? What I said was just an example. It doesn't have to be linear. I could continue it with: If temp goes over 70 degrees, set fan level 80 etc.

My fans are currently at 55% with GPU temps slightly under 70 degrees. However, I have no control over the ambient temperature in the room where the mining rig is placed, so I would love to have the security of an application that can boost the fan speeds should the temps get out of control.

PS. Fans are much more likely to fail while running at 100% than GPUs running at, say, 90 degrees.

I have two feature requests. Not sure if they have been requested already.

1. Built-in overclocking using aticonfig. Could just be two added parameters for the device, one for memory clock and one for core.
2. Automated fan control. In other words, if temp is over 50 degrees, set fan level 30. If temp goes over 60 degrees, set fan level 40 etc.

i don't think so...
100% fan will kick in 150 °C ?

...........
Fans have to be set manually @ desired noise level ( in my case 100%, other people can handle 50%only)
and overclock will be based on temperature.

30°C overclock up until temperature is 70°C then step down if 68°C then step up,
so working temperature is always around 70°C (or any other max)
=> if is outside PC too hot and cooling is not enough, GPUs auto underclock and temp will be still 70°C
if is outside PC colder card will be overclocking.
if is card more then 85°C = fan is broken = PC auto shut down

Just wanted to say that this is a great tool for remote administration. Like others, I eagerly await implementation of the failover option, especially now that many of the large pools are experiencing connection problems.

I do plan on adding some simple aticonfig stuff like you are suggesting down the line.

I roughed out plans for the failover system last night, and think I have an idea of a reasonable way to do it.
Failovers will work with manual profiles only. There will be a new "Configure Failover?" menu option. Under this menu option, you will be able to set a failover order of your manual profiles. Lastly, to run in failover mode, there will be a new dynamic profile that you can select from the Choose Profile menu named "Failover".
I should have the failover system ready in the next few days

I'm loving everything you just said. As soon as I have this up and running, I'm donating.

Is it possible to mine BTCGuild in first priority (with full power) and when they go down (like the last days because of DDOS) smartcoin switches completly to a backup like deepbit? If this is possible, where can i find this?

This is an upcoming feature.

yep, started yesterday with BTCGuild and the pool was shutdown completely. Running my alternate profile with multiple pools. Can't wait for failover to be implemented.

also, as a test of the update system patching, can those that ran the update let me know if:
A) ~/.smartcoin was created, and the smartcoin.db moved there
B) Go to the control tab-> 4) Edit Settings. Do you have an entry in the list " Development branch to follow (stable/experimental)?

thanks!

Awesome speed in fixing. Thank you.

A) works
B) works

Everything is fine Wink

Looks like BTCGuild and BTCMine are both being ddos'd right now!

Not to worry though, I'm still at full hash rate

Thats the advantage of running multiple instances like this!

ok, fix is in (r322)
Run an update and the issue with starting smartcoin via the symlink in directories outside of the installed directory works once again.
Thanks for the reports on this!

Sorry about that. I'm going to look into right now.
For now, cd into the smartcoin directory before running smartcoin

Ahh, when i start smartcoin directly like /home/$USERNAME/smartcoin/./smartcoin it works.
But the symlink from /usr/bin is not working Wink
